10mm

[crazysccrmd]

I'm going up to scout a potential high hunt area for a few days next week and am considering picking up a bear tag for it. I don't really want to go through the hassle of dragging a rifle around all the time just in case but always carry the pistol.

Would you shoot a bear in a hunting situation with 10mm? If so, 200gr hard cast or 180gr Hornady xtp? Vital shot with the expanding ammo or shoulder shot with the hard cast? Or maybe a neck shot? I shoot the pistol with hunting accuracy out to about 75m without a rest, so a 50m shot should be within reason on live game.

200 gr cast.....shoulder shot repeat as necessary

It could get the job done, but is not legal in our great state.

Which 10mm pistol? Not that it matters. As long as the barrel is 4" in length.

I built a couple 10mm MP5's. They were devastating on Pigs.

I WAS WRONG     I was thinking the opposite rule that doesn't allow me to use my .270 encore in a restricted area( i think it states that it specifically has to be a revolver type handgun) .
